I finally picked up Damage by Jimmy Eat World. Haven't listened to all of it yet but the tracks I have heard I'm liking it.

Still wanna hear that, but I wasn't impressed at all with that first single. Picked up the new Transplants album, glad to say it was better than the last Rancid album.

I wanna go pick up Black Sabbath's new album 13. I've heard the prince of fucking darkness hasn't lost his magic touch.

Fantastic catchy, folkish stuff.

There are literally two chords in that whole song. It still doesn't lose the magic, though, not bad. Just needed to point this out.

Ranking so far of all the 2013 albums I've listened to:

Tegan and Sara - Heartthrob 10/10
So good. Total change in sound for them, as it's very electronic. The only thing I don't like about it is that they tried to sing too high - out of their range - so when they do it live, it sounds bad. But they've really honed in on their craft and are writing better and better songs with each album. I love every song on the album.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WZHGeg_0Rlo

Hanson - Anthem - 10/10
One of their best albums to date. Different from the others, much more rock/big sound, which is great because I tend to prefer rock over the funk of the last album. Like Tegan and Sara, they develop their craft album by album. Such talented guys. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bRwk1deCmzA

Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Mosquito - 10/10
Wayyyy better than the last YYY album! Much more raw, more energetic... this album is soooo catchy. This and Show Your Bones are my favorite albums of theirs. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jmRI3Ew4BvA

Streetlight Manifesto - The Hands that Thieve - 10/10
So I guess it hasn't actually released because of issues with the label, which is really sad... I love these guys, and I hope they find a way to release it. I don't have a favorite album by this band, as all four are of equal value to me. Such a good record. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dc0gsKXC8XA
